The best photos from the week in sports: 5/5 - 5/12

The most wonderful time of the year for sports fans continues to entertain.

A heated Celtics-Wizards series in the Eastern Conference Semifinals has captivated our attention as the two teams duke it out -- literally -- for the chance to face the Cleveland Cavaliers next round. Across the country, the San Antonio Spurs took down the Houston Rockets to secure a spot in the Western Conference Finals.

The defending NHL champion Pittsburgh Penguins knocked the Washington Capitals out in a Game 7 showdown and are moving on to face the Ottawa Senators next.

Baseball remains as faithful as ever with games each night -- and sometimes, we even see some great plays from fans in the stands.
